Changed my faucet on the old Dodge

*UPDATE*

New faucet installed!

Early today before it got too hot here I worked on removing my old faucet and installing my new one- this was more difficult than I expected because of the small amount of space to work in and how awkward it was to move in there. I had to remove the sink to get at the 40 year old plumbing!

Installing new faucet



and......working!



Checking for leaks- all clean and clear!



Hard work, but worth it with plumbing all secured and new more useful faucet.

Thanks for checking in on this project!

    That's just the angle of the picture- the new one is more of a swan neck that gives me more room to get a pot onder it and more room clearance for an attached PUR Filter.

    One-handle faucet is better, can be operated with your wrist or elbow if needed.

    Single stainless sink was the best thing I did to my kitchen. Unbelievable how much counter space it freed up, compared to previous 27" plastic double sink. Mine is probably slightly wider than yours, 17" overall width.
